Tesco's is a very welcome addition as far as most Broadfields residents are concerned. It is a much needed quality store to the area. It is on the site of the infamous Sparrowhawk pub which was a huge nuisance to the residents & the Police. I suppose we would all like to live in a pretty, tranquil, secluded road, well Glengall Road has never ever been that as it is at the heart of the community for retail property. It is how it was designed and built all those years ago for the benefit of all Broadfields residents. I would think that house prices have only been affected for the better since the demise of that awful pub!

"We are proud to be part of the high street in Edgware" I think says it all really. Glengall Road isn't on a high street. Show the residents some respect!

Comparing Glengall Road to Oxford Circus is somewhat of an exaggeration at the very least, although nobody should disrespect any resident by parking over their drive, (if this has happened?). This said, as a Broadfields resident, I, together with others, welcome the arrival of Tesco, as contrary to what was said, the 'other Tesco' is not within walking distance and Glengall can now continue to serve its local community.

The safe disposal of rubbish should of course be a priority. This said, in respect to noise, traffic and pedestrian flow, if you consciously choose to buy/rent a property across the road to a primary school, what was once a thriving public house, (now Tesco), a take-a-way and a bustling parade of local neighbourhood shops, where no parking restrictions have ever applied, one cannot and should not, all of a sudden expect for peace and tranquillity to be 'the norm'!

SusanDC, I'm obviously sorry to hear of your mother's accident and naturally, anyone driving, (in Edgware, or anywhere else), needs to exercise due care for the area's residents, but this is in no way connected to the new Tesco and as such, is irrelevant to this article.
